Ricketts: State will move forward with execution

Gov. Pete Ricketts on Wednesday said he expects the state’s Department of Corrections will carry out the execution of Nebraska’s longest serving death row inmate on schedule next week.

“I’m not aware of anything that will delay the execution,” Ricketts said Wednesday after acknowledging a lawsuit filed Tuesday by a pharmaceutical company seeking to prevent Nebraska from using its drugs as part of a lethal injection.

“Our plan is to continue to move forward,” Ricketts added.

Carey Dean Moore, sentenced to death for the 1979 slayings of Omaha cab drivers Reuel Van Ness Jr. and Maynard Helgeland, would be the first Nebraska inmate to be executed since 1997.

Last week, Pope Francis changed the Catholic Church’s stance on capital punishment, calling it “inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person.”

Protesters gathered outside of St. Margaret Mary Parish in Omaha, where Ricketts is a parishioner, on Sunday, 12 days before Moore’s scheduled execution date of Aug. 14.

Ricketts said he wasn’t bothered by the protests or the communication appealing to his faith, saying he swore an oath to uphold the constitution and laws of the Nebraska.

He also said he doesn’t have any control over the decisions made by the church or its officials, but that his "conscience is that we need to have capital punishment in this state."

“There’s a number of people expressing their difference of opinion with regard to this, but the people of Nebraska have been very clear,” the governor said.

A statewide referendum in 2016, funded in part by $300,000 of the governor's personal money, reinstated the death penalty in Nebraska a year after the Legislature had abolished it over a veto from Ricketts.

The repeal of the death penalty was rejected by a 61 to 39 percent margin, which Ricketts called “absolute proof” of the state’s will to protect citizens, law enforcement and corrections officers and even other inmates.

“The people of Nebraska spoke loud and clear that they wanted to retain capital punishment as part of our overall state laws to protect public safety,” Ricketts said. “Our job is to carry that out.”
